BuDS aims to be an expert and professional charity in its field, and we rely on the support of our professional volunteers. Professional volunteers provide confidential, independent, and expert advice and insight to our Trustees and project teams. This can be done either as an active member of a project team or as an occasional informal consultant on an ‘as-needed’ basis. Our professional volunteers are both retired and currently practicing people.
